    This video made my day!! You ladies are both amazing and funny, I needed this. I loved film and writing since 6 years old and love marketing as well, finishing 2 college degrees with both. After spending hours and hours searching for a marketing position in the film industry, this definitely made me teary eyed because it gives me alot of insight on the types of careers in film that will allow me to release my talent and creativity. Thank you so so so much for this amazing video, and congrats on your accomplishments, you rock! Wish I knew you guys. Amazing personalities !!

    Thank you so much for this chat! I felt like I was having a conversation with friends. I'm so passionate about entertainment and film. I'm currently an editor and writer, recently graduated from Canada. Your story reminded me to trust the process, be open to different opportunities, and to get myself exposure to the fields I'm interested in. Time for me to send messages on Twitter! Haha. Thank you again for everything!

    Thank you so much for sharing this. I had a similar experience in TV and film; in relation to how exhausting it can be. Listening to this was super comforting. At the time I really didn't have peers my age around who understood and that made me grow super frustrated. Thankfully things are much better now.

    Hi Kristina and Olyvia, thank you so much for sharing this wonderful content. I am in the middle of considering which path I should go although I know that going into media production and marketing is something that i always wanted but I did (and maybe I am still) not know how to get into the entertainment media production / entertainment media marketing job, although I was graduated from a Marketing major. Found this video and find it really insightful. Would love to hear more from Olyvia if the opportunity comes. Really appreciate it. Thanks a lot, Ladies!! 💕

    I honestly was brought to tears because I needed this video so much. I am in the midst of a pretty significant career transition and have been researching ways to utilize my 15-year career in wholesale sales with the entertainment field. I think on-air promotions could be a wonderful fit!!
    I would love to connect with Olivia offline, as I I'm at a stage in my life and my career in which I feel I could benefit from a little mentoring and guidance on the next steps I would like to take.
    Looking forward to hearing from you.
    Thanks,
